I pray for good care for Bill. That’s a huge weight loss so that definitely needs to be addressed. I did my own research to find an ostomy dietician and I found an excellent one that I see virtually 1 or 2 per month. She’s been my lifesaver. She also has an ileostomy and all the degrees behind her name to know what she’s doing and I love her. If you want her contact information just let me know. I highly recommend her once Bill gets settled with an ostomy nurse. Just happy you have found good supplies that are working for him! That’s a huge success this early in his journey. As I told you previously, it took me 8-9 months to finally get the right system that works for me! Bill’s ahead of that curve!! Please update us after your contact with the ostomy clinic! 🙏

I don't know where we stand today. I had to call 911 as he had stroke symptoms. A lot of EMTs came, evaluated him and then took him to St Joseph's Emergency Room. He was given medication to break up any clots. He'll be there at least over night. Needless to say that this is another setback. I absolutely need to get him to the ostomy clinic to discuss the weight loss. Sorry to download on you, but I'm so upset. Laura
